Honestly: where competitors lead
- Bitly — legacy (since 2008), global brand, more integrations (Slack, Zapier).
- Cuttly — cheaper team pricing (flat fee regardless of seat count).
- DirectTo — extremely simple UX for casual users.
We are closing these gaps: Slack/Zapier in development, team pricing under review.
